This simple pasta will be loved by those who like salty and sweet flavours at the same time. I'am one of them, maybe that's why I like Chinese food so much. This pasta is not Chinese, it looks more like Italian, but everyone liked it very much. And it is not only simple and delicious, but also healthy.
Ingredients ( for 4 person): 500gr Chicken Thigh Fillets, 40gr Italian Hard Cheese, 30ml Balsamic Vinegar, 100gr Cheddar Cheese, 2pcs Courgette, 1tsp Dried Basil, 200dr Canned Chopped Tomatoes, 4pcs Garlic Clove, 1pcs Tomato, 30gr Tomato Paste, 20gr Vegetable Stock, 300gr Wholewheat Tortiglioni, Parsley - if desired.
Put your pasta to a pot of boiled water, with a pinch of salt, and bring to the boil over a high heat, and cook for 10 - 13min. Once cooked, drain, and set aside until later. Cut the chicken thigh fillet and the courgette into cubes. Heat a large pan with a drizzle of olive oil, over medium high heat. Once hot, add the courgette and chicken thigh with a pinch of salt, and ground pepper and cook for 7 - 10min or until the chicken has browned and the courgette is beginning to soften. Meanwhile, dissolve your vegetable stock the dried basil, the balsamic vinegar, the tomato paste, and 2tsp sugar in 150ml boiled water. Once the courgette and chicken is soften, add the chopped garlic the stock, with the chopped tomato and the canned tomato, and bring to the boil over a high heat. Season with a ground pepper, and cook for 5 - 7min. Add the pasta to the sauce with the chopped parsley, and mix it all up. Put half the pasta mixture to an oven proof dish, then top with the grated cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining pasta mixture and grated italian cheese, and put in the oven for 15 - 20min or until the top is baked and the cheese melts.
